This is a beautiful original non-excavated cuff size post Civil War era Michigan state seal button. The face of the button has an excellent amount of the original gold gilt remaining to make the detail show up well on the face. The Michigan state seal shows the shield supported by an elk and a moose. In the shield it shows a man standing on a peninsula under an eagle. The original back is present and the shank is solid as a rock. On the reverse of the button it has the correct maker's mark from after the Civil War for the M.C. Lilley firm that will date it from after the War. They were NOT in business during the War. This is the version listed as figure MG4av in Albert's button book. This is an excellent non-excavated cuff button that displays very well as you can see in the pictures and is a fraction of the price of a Civil War production button. Item #: C1315 Shipping Weight:
